Pray for the monks of Tasmania, Australia - first professions

The traditional Benedictine monastery being established in Tasmania, Australia takes a major step forward this Saturday, with the first professions of the first group of novices of the community.

The professions are scheduled for December 8, the feast of the Immaculate Conception, so please do keep them especially in your prayers.

The monks recently acquired a property, the Jerusalem Estate, so if you can also help them financially, please do consider making a donation, or buying something from their monk shop.

But above all, pray for the perseverance of the monks, and that the community might continue to grow and thrive.

Wonderful news!

Have had Holy Mass offered for you via ACN, in thanksgiving for all the good work you do here.

Will certainly pray and donate. After visiting Clear Creek I became very aware of how critical these traditional monasteries/convents are to Holy Mother Church. With The Church being attacker internally and externally they are vital. Not unlike the Middle Ages..
